Now, I know that "ALL scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness"...I know that. And I am not suggesting, by any means, that we do away with any part of the Bible at all. All I am really saying is that we should spend a lot more time in the New Testament Epistles than we have!

This is the importance of the New Testament, the Epistles. We haven't spent enough time with it to find out what it says. There isn't anyone who's willing to study it and communicate it the way it should be, via the spirit. We haven't spent enough time with it to find out if these things be so! It's time for the New Testament Church to wake up and find out who she really is. Its time for the New Testament Church to find out she is a New Testament Church.

It's time for the Church to find out who she is and how she got to be who she is with all the authority she now has; because of what Christ has done. It's time the Church took her rightful place at the right hand of God, in Christ!

That is where God Himself has put her, which is why Jesus was sacrificed on the cross, so we could be with Him, in all He does through us, through us, through us, DO YOU GET IT?

That is the message of the New Testament, now who do you think doesn't want you to know that? God? I don't think so. Think about it!

The whole message of God to us, His orphaned kid, is contained in Paul's letters, that Epistle of love, certified special delivery by His own blood, and we've just hung it on a wall and went back to the other letters of the past. WHY? All of everything He is and did, all of everything we are, is contained in the Letters of the New Testament and we should take the time to find out what in the spirit they say, don't you think?

We should spend enough time there until we do have them figured out, because that is what is important to God! They contain all of who God Himself is, through His Son Jesus Christ. LOOK. LOOK at this!

ACTS 20:27
(KJV)
For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
(The Living Bible)
for I didn't shrink from declaring all God's message to you...
(The Message)
I've done my best for you, given you my all, held back nothing of God's will for you...
(Concordant)
for under no circumstances do I shrink from informing you of the entire counsel of God's will...
(Doddridge)
and have not declined to declare to you with the utmost freedom and integrity all the counsel of God, but on the contrary have laid before you the whole system of Divine truth relating to our redemption in Christ...

First, we are told that Paul gave us God's message and it was nothing but Christ and Him crucified, then he gave us the whole counsel of God? "Held back nothing"? "All God's message"? "Have laid before you the whole system of divine truth relating to our redemption in Christ"? Man, am I in trouble. How in the world am I going to explain my way out of this? What am I going to tell you now? I don't know, honestly. If you were me and you were typing this right now what would you say? Go on or get lost? I've got to go on.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ deals with the root cause of man’s problem. It strikes deep into the heart of man and hits him where it counts, the core, the center, the cause of the man.

The New Testament was sent to us to do this because this is where our problem started, and if God doesn't get to the root of the problem, the cause of the problem, then the weed is liable to spring back up. If we just casually fix the effect of the problem and not the cause than all will be fine, for a while, and we think we have really gotten somewhere, until the problem surfaces somewhere else in our being, than what. We go to fixing that? Then we go on for a little while and the same process happens over and over again and again. Why? We haven't gotten to the real problem yet. We spend all our life chasing the thing, which is right in front of us, around in circles. It cannot be fixed from the outside, it is an internal problem. It cannot be seen from the outside it is an internal problem. And the problem can be identified by one question?
